Installing Antenna
Connecting RF Cable & AC Power Cable (Customer Supplied)
In the cable connection on both sides, cable termination should be completed using suitable tools. After
connecting the cables to the cable connector on the power circuit brake box inside the radome, adjust the cable
length and then securely fix the cables on the cable brackets of the mast by using cable ties.
1. Terminate N(M) connector on the end of the RF Cable. Intellian recommends using genuine cable connectors
and tools. Refer to the cable termination instructions provided by the manufacturer to terminate the N
connector.
2. The cables must be inserted through the cable glands at the base of the radome. Pass the "RF Cable"
from the "ANTENNA" connector on the rear of the ACU through the cable entry apertures into the radome.
Pass the "AC Power Cable" from ship's power through the cable entry apertures into the radome. First,
temporarily assemble cable glands to hold the cables in place before. After all of the cables are connected,
tighten the cable glands fully. Follow the cable glands assembly sequence as shown in the picture.
3. Temporarily tie the cables to the cable bracket by using
cable ties. After connecting the cables to cable connector
on the unit inside the radome, adjust the cable length and
then fix the cables on the cable brackets by using cable
ties.
